Reviews of BARE Wine Tours (Travel Agency)

Tianna Mcginn

We had such an awesome experience with Bare Wine Tours. Kiel was nothing but absolutely amazing with our group. He brought food and refreshments for us, kept the energy up and was our personal photographer. We had nothing but a great experience with this company and would do this tour time and time again. BOOK KIEL!

Kylie Clow

So well organised and Bob our driver was just wonderful! All the wineries were ones we wouldnt have gone to ourselves but absolutely everyone should they were great!

Jessica Paglinawan

Had tons of fun! Well organized and was exactly the pace we wanted. We had Harold who was such a joy to have with our large group of 11 (he is a great photographer!) He accommodated our fun, slightly loud and easy-going group. Thanks to Cass for adding the delicious chocolate dipped strawberries since we weren't able to find a winery that would include cheese pairings. Transportation was fantastic and the vehicle looked/felt brand new. Would definitely recommend!

Andrea Pringle

We used Bare Wine Tours for my bachelorette and I can’t say enough good stuff about our experience! First and foremost, our tour guide Merlin was absolutely amazing! He was so much fun, and provided everything we needed for a successful tour, including snacks, water and even let us play our own music in the van! Highly recommend Bare Wine Tours and make sure to get Merlin!!

Jacqui Jepson

We had Merlin as our tour guide and he made the trip! He brought us snacks, was knowledgeable and kind. I highly recommend this driver and the tour company!

Jessalyn Broadfoot

Great service! Highly recommend this company. They catered to our every need :)

Brynn Klym

I will never bother going on any other wine tour again because there is no one out there like Ryan at Bare Wine Tours. He is the absolute best - We showed up as strangers and left with a new friend. Added bonus: he does magic!

Natasha Hoa

My friend and I had a great time on our wine tour through Naramata. Merlin was great! Thanksagain n Bare wine tours!

Jason Keenan

We did two days of private tours with Bare and were hosted by Roy and Merlin (each for a day). Not only was it the perfect way to experience a handful of wineries, the knowledge about wines and the region made it so worthwhile. In the time of COVID we felt safe and well looked after. We we return for the next tasting we will use Bare.

Trevor Kirk

What a fantastic Thursday! Darryl was a terrific host and had snacks and drinks ready right at the start of the day. We booked last minute and were able to visit Rollingale, Mission Hill, Quails Gate, The Hatch and Off the Grid - a very nice variety of wines and atmospheres. He was organized, well informed and easy to talk to. I would love to recommend this tour company. It was a great experience.

Victor Anasimiv

We did a day trip to Naramata Bench from Kelowna, drank at 6 tastings and ate a delicious lunch at de Silva. Received most awesome service from our driver & guide Merlin.

Daniel Kearney

What a fantastic experience! Darryl was our tour guide. Great guy! Friendly, funny, knowledgeable and very easy going. We ended up going to more wineries than expected. I would highly recommend Bare Wine Tours and will be using their services again for our trip to Oliver later this year. Thanks for a great day!

Kylie Fisher

We enjoyed the West Kelowna Tour on Friday the 3rd. Merlin our guide and Cassandra our booking lady were amazing I can not recommend them enough! They were both highly professional and went out of their way to make our wine tour as perfect as possible. They picked us up from Fintry no hassle. Cassandra made booking easy and catered to our every whim. Merlin shared a lot of knowledge with us about the wineries and was ready with snacks and drinks. He encouraged us to play whatever music we liked as loud as we liked, they even added an extra winery to the tour! They really look after you! We really loved Off the Grid winery which is where we had a food truck lunch and Mt Boucherie and would visit them both again. We enjoyed Ciao Bella Winery and Beaumont for the family feel. We bought wine from all four of these wineries. We wouldn't return to Hatch personally not one of our group of seven liked the wines. We also visited Truck 49 Cider House which we really enjoyed also. This was our second tour with Bare and we will be back for a third in the future for sure!

Absolutely fantastic experience. Sue was absolutely lovely, our very own fairy God mother.

Nicole Williams

We had the guide Bob Galaza. Originally we had a group of 10. By the time the day of the tour arrived we had 8. The compnay supplied the hand sanitizer and the masks. Bob was a kind and a very helpful guide. He arrived early to pick us up. We arrived a little bit early to each place allowing us to stretch our legs before each tasting. He was happy and joval making good jokes and telling us great information about the 5 different winery's we went to. (Frequency, The View, Summer hill (lunch break there) Vibrant, and Kitsch) He gave penty of good wine recommendations and pairings. Snacks at the appropriate times just before we were really starting to be hungry. Helped us take pictures and even pointed out the best places to get the best shot. The size of the ford Transit allowed us all to be comfortable and safe. Air conditioning was powerful and kept us all cool in the +30°C weather. His driving was gentle and smooth could hardly tell when he stopped. He allowed us to pick the music the sound system was great. He made plenty of good jokes along the way. Telling us about the areas around the winerys as we were from out of town on holidays. Prices were great and best of the bunch. Bare wine tours were a fantastic addition to our vacation! And will definitely recommend them to friends and family.

Jennifer Park

Planned a wine tour with 10 friends today and Darryl was a fantastic tour guide! He had plenty of water and snacks for us in the van that came in very handy with the hot sunny weather. Cassandra the owner planned a great day for us including a stop at off the grid winery where we had a delicious lunch. By far an amazing day full of great wine great food and great friends! Xo

BARE Wine Tours hosted my bachelorette and every interaction with them was 5 star! From the ongoing communication, planning the custom tour, to the day of details. The stops were well suited to our group and location. Everything was perfect and I was able to simply sit back and enjoy the day. This tour was the highlight of our weekend!

Dave Mills

My wife and I had an amazing experience with Bare Wine Tours. They made booking our tour seem seemless and easy, and they took us to all the wineries we were excited to see. Overall a fun experience and we will most definitely use them again the next time we travel to the Okanagan. Highly recommended. Thanks again for making our experience enjoyable.

Chantelle Deschanes

We had an amazing experience. We were really taken care of from first contact. The little extras they provided like chocolate strawberries were thoughtful and much appreciated. We truly felt spoilt by our guide. He was funny and charming and added to our special day in the Okanagan. Thanks for everything.

Brandon Mahowich

We booked with BARE wine tours for our honeymoon and were very impressed with the quality of service they provide. Our driver Merlin was awesome to spend the day with. He was knowledgeable and on time for pick up. Vehicle was very spacious and comfortable. Highly recommend using them

Charlotte Sawyer

We had a blast on our BARE Wine Tour over the Canada Day long weekend! They were so responsive, the service was fabulous door-to-door, the wineries they took us to were top notch (including FRIND and Quail's Gate) and most of all, our guide Bruce was amazing! Thank you Bruce!

Taryn Lomas

I would highly recommend using Bare Wine Tours when in Kelowna. We were told about them by friends who had also had a great experience! We felt taken care of and everything ran smoothly and on time. Big shout out to Merlin who made our experience even better, nothing was too much trouble for him!

Grace Kelly

We had a sensational day in West Kelowna! It was a very well planned day. Everyone was able to relax and enjoy our get together with the great service provided by our guide and the wineries. Oh and the wine at almost every stop was fantastic! Big thanks to the team at BARE

Rachel Cooke

BARE wine tours is absolutely amazing! We used this company for my bachelorette party! Our tour guide Kiel was fantastic! He made sure the tour was exactly what we wanted it to be, made sure we had lots of snacks/water, and took amazing/creative photos of our group! Would recommend this company to anyone especially large groups looking for a personalized experience! Thanks you so much Kiel you rock !!!

Kelsey Graydon

Bob was our wine guide and he was awesome. He even gave us some yummy snacks! All the wineries we went to were amazing. We had a baby with us and Bob was very accommodating. I highly recommend using Bare Wine Tours.

Jen Carter

We had a fantastic Kelowna wine tour with Bare. Cass was so wonderful to deal with and organized just an unforgettable day for us. The guide was super knowledgeable and really took great care of all our needs throughout the day.

Rebekah Mason

Booked this wine tour company for a 6 person bachelorette! We had Roy as our driver and he was a blast! Highly recommend. We saw another bachelorette on a wine tour with a different company and their driver was not as awesome as Roy! He took so many photos of us, we loved it! BARE wine tour was professional, clean, covid friendly, and very accommodating!

Charlie Harris

It was the most fun we can remember... barely! Thanks again

Cheriee Glauser

RYAN ROCKS!! Honestly, I went with this company solely because Ryan is now working with them. Ryan is a guide with a very special talent ????????. I have told basically everyone I know about him and I HAD to have him for my besties bachelorette! Of course he was nothing short of AMAZING. We had an absolute blast and I really cant thank him enough for making the day so incredibly special. ANOTHER BONUS: This company was an absolute dream to work with. I was mainly in contact with Naomi, she gave great suggestions and helped me plan the day to a tee. Everyone was extremely helpful & their communication was unmatched. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Elise Ray

Awesome day with Bare Wine Tours. Most enthusiastic, friendly and knowledgeable guide regarding the vineyards and wine country. Will be back !

Siobhan Gallagher

We had the pleasure of having Roy as our Bare wine tour guide! What a gem! He was such a gentleman for the entire day! He provided us with snacks and water, acted as our very own personal photographer for the day, sent us all the photos he took in his personal camera, carried any wine purchases we made back to the bus, brought us our lunch as we sat in the sun enjoying wine, never made us feel rushed even when we were a little behind time! Highly recommended! What an asset to Bare wine tours! Roy your the best :)

Seeruh Lindsey

We had Bare Wine Tours escort us for part of our Bachelorette Party! There was a bit of a mix up regarding which wineries we chose but was quickly rectified and we got to go to all of the wineries we had hoped too! Our driver was Darryl and he was amazing! He had all of our names and was super helpful, pleasant, polite and funny! He took tons of pictures for us and made sure we had everything we needed. I will definitely use your services again and I highly recommend to book with them! Thank you for everything:)

Melanie Morris

Our group booked to celebrate two 50th birthdays and one retirement. It was an awesome trip. Bare Wine Tours, with Cassandra planning and Darryl being our guide, delivered a fabulous experience. As some of our group doesn't drink wine, Cassandra planned a day of wineries, a brewery and a cider house. We were delighted. I would highly recommend Bare Wine Tours to anyone and will be booking with them again when I'm in Kelowna. Thank you Cassandra and Darryl for making our trip so memorable and fun!

Christina Godden

We had a great experience with Bare Wine Tours! It was easy to book and the company was very friendly and easy to communicate with. They picked us up on time and the guide was extremely knowledgeable and helpful and a lot of fun! The company went above and beyond our expectations and we would definitely book with them again, and recommend them to all our friends!

Vanessa Vojnovic

I highly recommend BARE Wine Tours for any occasion you may be celebrating. I reached out to BARE Wine Tours for my sister’s bachelorette weekend and the entire experience from beginning to end was excellent and stress-free. I communicated directly with Cassandra while planning the day and she responded quickly, provided detailed information and organized a day filled with my sister’s favourite wineries. On the day of the tour, we had Bob as our guide and I cannot say enough great things about Bob. He exuded professionalism, had great personality and was so nice about us asking him to take about a million group photos! Overall, we had such an incredible day and after the tour, everyone commented on how much fun they had! Thank you BARE Wine Tours for such a wonderful experience!
